1h 5m
Directed by Hong Sangsoo | 66 mins | 2021
This devilishly deft portrait of missed and near-missed connections orbits a young man (Shin Seok-ho) adrift, sketching out his romantic and familial relationships in three parts (and a mere 66 minutes).

Winner of the Silver Bear Grand Jury Prize at the Berlin Film Festival.
